Xmas songs : Tue Dec 13, 2011 7:20 pm  

is the Killers Cowboy Christmas song the worst Xmas song of all time

It may be a charity single but it is so bad. Is this really the band that did Mr Brightside.

On a positive note i get to hear the 4 best Xmas songs a plenty

Silent Night by Sinead O'Connor
Gaudete by Steeleye Span
Xmas Wraping by the Waitresses
Fairytale of New York by Kirsty McColl and the Pogues

White Christmas is the granddaddy of seasonal songs.

Band Aid takes the worst song ever. Not only is it an awful song, it lies.

Peace On Earth/Little Drummer Boy - David Bowie/Bing Crosby is my favourite.

In saying this though it's hardly a classic,like most Xmas songs.

My favourite is another Rock N Roll Christmas by Gary Glitter. Just because he's a paedo it's seen as non pc to play his music any more but I still enjoy it.

One bugbear of mine is why on Christmas LPs you have random songs with nothing to do with Christmas, that were released around Christmas, like that annoying stay another day song by East 17 and that Frankie goes to Hollywood song that goes "ayeayeayeaye feels like fire..."

Mud - Lonley this Christmas, best one.

Power of Love, not a Christmas song but the video is based around the nativity (purely to cash in on Christmas) so it tends to get trotted out by commercial radio and Music channels around this time of year.
